Both static and active blur seem to work ok now on Radeon X800 GTO (R480
chip) with the fixed packages.

I had some problems with it though, first, the PPA has no packages for
13.04, only for Saucy so I had to manually download the packages and
install them with dpkg. Second is some broken dependencies, libnux
depends on libpango-1.0-0 and libpangocairo-1.0-0. Libpango is
installed, don't know why the broken dependency for that, but there's no
libpangocairo in the repos. Also after installing, the package unity has
two broken dependencies, compiz-core-abiversion-20130125 and libnux-
abiversion-20130411.0.

I'll leave things as it is for a while and see if any problems come up
with blurring or anything related, but for now all seems good on that
front. Performance isn't all that stellar, though perfectly usable, but
I think that's just a general unity issue. I realize my GPU is quite
old, but even so I think the experience could be a lot more snappy.
Hopefully performance is something that will be focused on with future
releases. I understand unity in 13.04 should already be performing
better than past versions, but I haven't used those so can't compare.

Anyway I'm getting off topic, thanks for fixing the bug, hopefully the
fix gets merged upstream soon. As it is, the graphic bug makes the whole
system feel broken on a fresh install and many people will just opt for
something that works right out, rather than spend time googling on how
to fix the issue.
